Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants. But in the executive（主管的） circle, beauty can become a liability.‎ ‎　　While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.‎ ‎　　Handsome male executives were considered having more honesty than plainer men;‎ ‎ effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.‎ ‎　　Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.‎ ‎　　All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.‎ ‎　　Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly”qualifies required.‎ ‎　　This is true even in politics, “When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently, ” says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates（候选人）. She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.‎ ‎　　The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.‎ ‎　 39．The word “liability” most probably means ________.‎ ‎　　 A. disadvantage　B. advantage　　　C. misfortune　　 D. trouble ‎　 40．Bowman’s experiment shows that when it comes to politics, attractiveness________‎ ‎　　 A. turns out to　be a disadvantage to men ‎　　 B. is more of a disadvantage than an advantage to women ‎　　 C. has as little effect on men as on women ‎　　 D. affects men and women alike ‎　 41．It can be inferred from the passage that people’s views on beauty are ‎ often________.‎ ‎　　 A. practical　　　B. supportive　　 C. old – fashioned　D. one - sided ‎　　42．The author writes this passage to ________.‎ ‎　　 A. give advice to job - seekers who are attractive ‎　　 B. discuss the disadvantages of being attractive ‎　　 C. demand equal rights for women D. state the importance of appearance C ‎ Every person has a unique experience and a story to tell about his school life, so do I.‎ ‎ We had great fun in growing and learning. Every year we were taken to different places for our school picnics. I was never able to go to these tours but I enjoyed every word of the stories told by my friends. When I was in Grade Eight, I won a couple of prizes in drawing and school competitions. We were also given many projects as class assignments that helped all of us to know more about the subject. I was very fond of cricket (now in football). My friends and I played cricket in the school campus after school, but at the same time, we all used to get lots of scolding from our headmaster. ‎ ‎ Every Saturday we used to have our P.T. exercise, and frankly speaking, nobody in my class, even me, had ever liked this. As I reached Grade Nine I realised that I should concentrate on my studies as the next year I was going to take my Board exams. The most memorable day in my life was the day when we held the farewell party for our seniors. Well, now I am in Grade Ten and all set to write my Boards in March. Whenever I recollect all these incidents of school life, I feel very happy and in everybody’s school life, I think there are many ups and downs that mould(浇注) one’s life. School is a place where all of us learn to care and share. “School” is not just a place, but also it is a large dome made up of knowledge, love and affection. I think in everybody’s success, school plays a key role. I can describe my school in “Three S’s”, they are: Small, Sweet and Simple. ‎ ‎43. From the second paragraph we can infer that _____. ‎ ‎ A. all the students could take part in school’s picnics ‎ B. the author didn’t behave well before ‎ C. the author was very bad at his studies ‎ ‎ D. the school didn’t approve of students’ playing on the campus ‎44. At school, the author is good at ______.‎ ‎ A. drawing B. cricket C. football D. composition ‎ ‎45. The underlined phrase “ups and downs” probably means “______”.‎ ‎ A. favorite and boring subjects ‎ ‎ B. lucky and unlucky persons ‎ C. good and bad experiences ‎ ‎ D. high and low spirits ‎46. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ ‎ A. I am good at playing football ‎ ‎ B. We should study hard ‎ C. My life at school ‎ ‎ D. What a school means D Women don’t talk more than men. Really, they don’t. Women speak 20,000 words a day, compared to the average man’s 7,000. But a study published recently denies this old rule. Both men and women use about 16,000 words a day, says the new research in Science magazine.‎ ‎ “It’s been a common belief, but it just didn’t fit,” says James Pennebaker, the researcher of the seven-year study. Pennebaker and his colleagues analyzed (分析) recorded conversations of 396 university students age 18 to 29 in the USA and Mexico, including 210 women and 186 men. The study didn’t look at vocabulary or word use, but rather word count. ‎ ‎ Pennebaker says two-thirds of participants spoke 11,000 to 25,000 words a day, with the average for both sexes about 16,000 words. The finding may seem surprising ‎ in a popular culture where women are often thought of as talkative and men as silent. ‎ ‎ Most recently, psychiatrist (精神病学家) Louann Brizendine used the 20,000 and 7,000 comparison in her 2006 book The Female Brain, as evidence for brain differences. After the book came out in August, the data was widely reused. “That hits a nerve (神经). It’s been surprising to me that this little point is the point people pick out,” says Brizendine.‎ ‎ But experts in neurolinguistics(神经语言学) thought that the data was uncertain. Mark Liberman, a linguistics professor at the University of Pennsylvania, says that after Brizendine’s book came out, he tried to find evidence to support her claim, but failed.‎ ‎47. According to the new research in Science magazine, how many words do women use a week?‎ ‎ A. 140,000. B. 47,000. C. 112,000. D. 28, 000. ‎ ‎48. What did Pennebaker and his colleagues focus on in their study? ‎ ‎ A. The number of words people used.‎ ‎ B. The structures people used.‎ ‎ C. The speed of speaking words.‎ ‎ D. The use of words. ‎ ‎49. We can know the comparison used in The Female Brain was ______. ‎ ‎ A. considered untrue by most scientists ‎ B. accepted as a truth by most scientists ‎ ‎ C. seldom reused by others ‎ ‎ D. considered as evidence for sex brain similarities ‎50. It can be inferred from the passage that at the beginning, Mark Liberman ______. ‎ A. didn’t believe Brizendine’s data in her 2006 book The Female Brain B. thought Brizendine’s data in her 2006 book The Female Brain was true ‎ C. succeeded in finding the evidence to support Brizendine’s claim ‎ D. cared little about Brizendine’s claim in her 2006 book The Female Brain ‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎51 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.‎ The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 52 . ‎ The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 53 It included such items as automobiles and new houses. ‎ By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life-enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction－the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body－this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 54 ‎ On this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level ? ‎ ‎ A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 55 In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.‎ ‎ A．Then a third level appeared.‎ ‎ B．Human wants seem endless.‎ ‎ C．When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.‎ ‎ D．There are several levels of wants in one’s life.‎ ‎ E．At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.‎ ‎ F．Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.‎ ‎ G．Different people have different wants on each level.‎ 第Ⅱ卷 主观题（共35分）‎ 第三部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ Last week, when I was taking train in Manchester, I saw a      56._______ scene it astonished me.
